Hitachi Projection tv

The left side of screen all of a sudden became blurry and letters on screen have a shadow behind them thta do not line up. Also, have wavy broad line going acroos screen about 5 inches from top. I tried Magic Focus 5 times but no cnange.

These sets need to have all three colors - RED - BLUE - GREEN - lined up correctly on the screen in order for the picture to look normal. This is called convergence.

When its out of alignment the video will look 3-D, wavy, distorted, etc. Most of the time you just need to adjust your convergence in the menu. If you cannot adjust it in the menu - then your convergence is broken and needs to be repaired. Convergence problems are very common on all Projection TV sets including Sony, Samsung,JVC,Philip Magnavox,Panasonic,Akai,Pioneer, Hitachi,Mitsubishi,Zenith and others.

sounds as if your convergence needs to be set. either through the menu on the tv or remote you need to get to the convergence set screen and you need to line up the crosshairs. this usually happens when the tv is moved or bumped.

TV shows large red spot in middle of tv when dark show are on, you can see it more. Now blue spots on upper right side too. Spend way to much on this tv to have these kinds of problems only after 3 yrs.

I have 50" philips magnavox big screen. I recently started to have a problem with the edges of my tv. They became blurry. the center of the tv is clear and the edges are blurry. what should I do to fix this problem.

If you mean that the 3 colors (reg, green and blue) suddenly no longer line up properly in one area of the screen, it means that one of your convergence IC's has burned out and needs to be replaced. There is no adjustment that will correct the picture in this case. When I do a housecall to replace a burned out convergence IC and realign the convergence circuits, I charge $150 but shops in your area will vary so be sure to ask around.
